Jews don't believe in heaven or hell. They only believe in Sheol, a dumping ground for all dead people, good and bad. It was Jesus who introduced the concept of heaven and hell to the world. Many people use the term heaven and hell, but, it is really a Christian idea, not a Jewish one. Jesus was a reform Jew, but, the Jews in general have rejected Jesus and his teachings.

Olam HaNeshamos (the world of the souls), sometimes also referred to by the more inclusive Olam HaBa (world to come).
